Failpetition Fails

It's always a pleasure when someone threatens to wardec my humble one-man corp, Experimental Fun Times Corp. I have won every war so far.

Most threats of wardecs are never realized, but occasionally someone will pony up the 50 million isk required to launch the 'dec.

In all, I have been wardecced eight times, with each 'dec defeated by dissolving and reforming the exact same corp. I blogged about this from the beginning, but not everyone reads every MinerBumping post--a mistake, to be sure. 400 million isk of damages have been inflicted in this manner.

Now turn back the clock to October, when Agent Galaxy Pig braved the wilds of EVE-O to request that CCP make a public statement about miner bumping. A few months later, they finally did. At the time, Beachura and other denialists wanted everyone to just ignore the New Order, hoping we would go away. You might remember Beachura's alliance, Double Tap., for its failed merc contract against us last autumn.

Now, having had your fill of exposition and background info, you are well-prepared to enjoy Beachura's masterpiece of tears:

Satisfying indeed. I attempted to respond to Beachura's EVEmail, but to no effect:

Sadly, I was pre-blocked by the valiant space-lawyering denialist failmerc. I am unable to contact Beachura, but hopefully this won't be the last we hear of her. I would hate for things between us to be left like this.

One thing I love about the New Order is how it exploits the game mechanics so effectively. And how so many others, CEOs, and those who should no better are completely ignorant of those mechanics.

Just the other day I had a corp CEO tell me how we couldn't attack barges in hisec because CONCORD! Like he'd never heard of suicide ganking. Luckily I wasn't talking to him because I was going to gank him. I was talking to him to establish 'rebel' cred for the awoxer he was going to send an invite too an hour later. That CEO got to learn about all sorts of new game mechanics that night.

The New Order is very educational. Kind of like Eve University only more fun.

Well, they need to take a break from getting their rear ends handed to them by fleets half their size (even if they have capitals on field). At least here they can still threaten with something - rather than just sit in station and watch their "client's" towers being torched ;)

I didn't realize you could recycle a corp name...not that it was illegal, just that once a corp name and ticker were used it couldn't be used again. I literally learn something new about this game every day, and a lot of it here :)

Anyway, why would this be any more of an exploit than dropping corp to a NPC corp to avoid a war?

It's not an exploit of game mechanics... it's used quite often by multiple "carebear" Corps as a means to 'gtfo' of a war quick. Interestingly enough the "carebears" or, rather those who fail miserably at Eve (some carebears are good), begged CCP for something exactly like this; and they got it. The proof that "carebears" will complain about anything and in no way will you ever be able to please them is the fact that when this legal mechanic is used against them, they scream bloody murder... Wow ---------------------------->

And its times like this you can feel the ending of a great game coming to an end. When the idea of what may have started out as something great gets twisted and ugly to the point that the ones that so violently stood for something now stand for nothing more than destruction. Be ever so careful that the snake does not swallow its own tail in the name of game mechanics.

Destroy the game....never. They will destroy themselves first before that happens. its already happening. He ran for Csm..and dropped out....Epic fail there..and now all he got left are children of the lost following him...lol.

i dont have any idea what you fools in the previous 3 posts are babbling about, but maybe you guys should form a support group for each other or something...maybe you just arent aware that subs are at an all time high. maybe you just dont accept that new players find and join the New Order daily.maybe you dont understand that botting IS against the EULA, and being afk in a billion isk ship is a bad idea. blowing people up in an internet spaceship war game however...isntone one hand all these poor nay-sayer babies claim the New Order is a fad, and will be gone soon. then on the other hand the New Order is the single most influential group/movement the game has ever seen, with the power to topple the entire globe of active players.which is it?i think its time for a thicker tinfoil hat, and to take your meds.

You might be right about you needing a thicker tin hat and med. Everybody says there the"best" and can do "all" these things... delusions of grandeur seems to be something in your meds at the moment. despite everything he has done, please enlighten the people of just how COP has changed its ways because of what he has done? I don't see anything , it not on the new update coming out in June. Is he keeping it a secret or something?.Like you said..your just a fad...one that will blow away and when it does, i'll quickly make corp that you can join and follow, i'll call it.."Dead Order". That should help you sleep at night at lease right?

You somehow got a point out of all that nonsense and broken (but probably native) English?

I gotta say, I notice new names on kill mails every time I log in, all these new faces eager to progress the cause, anxious to purge Highsec of the automatons in the name of emergent gameplay, risk:reward, and James 315.
